Synopsis

Rafia Zakaria's "Against White Feminism" critically examines the historical and contemporary limitations of mainstream feminism, particularly its tendency to center white women's experiences and concerns. The book argues that this narrow focus has often marginalized or ignored the struggles of women of color and other oppressed groups. Zakaria calls for a more inclusive and intersectional approach to feminist theory and practice.
